GrimDark LitRPG Sci-Fi Supernatural Post Apocalyptic -- Book 1 of the Dream

A world devastated by a Great War that lasted decades until finally, they unleashed literal Hell on Earth, a nuclear holocaust The level of power created by these doomsday weapons not only left most of the world a toxic sewer but also broke open the sky. What emerged was a northern lights kaleidoscope that brought a system, abilities, stages of power and oh yes, demons. It was called the Dream. It also brought an advancement that melded magic and tech and the Lanterns, a trained force to keep the demons in check...
2000 years later, the Architect and leader of the human race, the Archon, chooses to merge with a demon lord which leads to the Fall, the ending of humanity's supremacy and the beginning of one where demon/human hybrids are the apex. The Lanterns try to fight back but are utterly crushed.
Twenty years after the Fall humanity hides and survives, the Lanterns mostly dead and gone. Can one of the last Battle Squads of the Lanterns, The War Hounds, do anything in a world that has been taken over by demon/human hybrids? Do they want to?

Excerpt from The War Hounds

New Hades lit busy streets upon the spit of infernals scurrying as ants upon the hive. It was the night of blades and steps into the eternal, the once a month Festival of Blood, the gladiatorial pit, the fulcrum of sultry steps and rowdy shits, the eve of a thousand pleasures and tortures, a spin upon the temporal cave of keeping appetites in the reins of acceptable volition. It was a party, infernal style, drunken debauchery plied with battle and fornication. It was the once a calendar moon highlight of the infernal host.

Coins in a sliver of silver

Poem by JD Glasscock

She's destined for the scream like a horror flick playing in a dream... And his pockets are empty.. Got rolled in a back alley hoping for a taste...a melancholy tune strumming chords on the threaded strings of a beat up violin aged in

kisses..

She said his name once..in a fever... sweat carving pictographs to a black and white noir frame...a dial up of a vision on a phone with no tone...

They say in the soft segues between tomorrow and yesterday... you can hear their whispers.. you can hear their goodbyes... It all happened on a Tuesday... that forgotten slip between a touch and a punch.. on the cusp of a promise .

What are words but breaths held against the memory of today and the spot between her neck and lips.. between her breasts and her womb...

That man is still there.. in the midnight.. knuckle crawling silver holding a last wish between teeth

Devils in transitional moments of beauty

Poem JD Glasscock

The devil's in the details, high speed rails, broken down trails that we call life, so finger spit the chamber, play Russian roulette with tourettes,a shaky hand and starry eyes, one last goodbye... Flipping deuces when you need aces, hoping for a joker to crash the gin straight up into a bent cup.... Roll the bones, slitted eyes or a prayer for sevens on the back of a hooker's thighs... Silver coin spinning across knuckles, flipped into the cavernous gape that is fate... Slip step into the ethereal and a jaunt to the ever ever... Forever is a long fucking time..,.. She sighed into the drop that was the maw of articulation and we were two rickety boats sailing the turbulent afterimages of dream... Had a certain sheen when seen in shitty light and no hope..... Rope a dope and we calling the whole sha bang bang.... The old tunes the crevice of her prayer hung in the night was something to behold, truth be told.... And we wove threads through the silence of the dead and hummed melodies that memory etched into remembrance and we would see each other on the other side of a dawn that would never see the crack ass of tomorrow.... Stars are the strings of my guitar and I got a hankering to play... Stay and we will say hello to the fuckery of ages.... Rages dwindling into whimpers.... My hand slaps the silly of generations and the tick tock of clocks crumble beneath an ocean of regret..... The sun has set... It was a doozy of a ride... Shine shine... Beauty was always your friend

    I really like the world and characters that are being presented, that being said the book could use an immense amount of polishing. Very rambling and repetitive at times. Will continue the series though.

    Great storyline kinda confusing with the constant jumping between characters, very impressive how the author has created multiple main characters who matter to you after a few chapters.
